A guide to getting married in Toronto

Every couple who dreams of a fantastic wedding knows that Toronto is the ideal location to see your dreams come to life. From exciting wedding venues to excellent catering services and interesting wedding boutiques, the city has you covered with all you need for a grand wedding. So, if you are getting married in Toronto, you have it pretty easy. Here is some advice to help you along, as you plan your wedding day in this city.

The best time for a wedding

This depends on your personal preferences and plans for your wedding day. June and September are the best months for an outdoor wedding. If you want to save on your wedding expenses, consider the off-season from January to March, when venue prices are slashed. Getting married in the winter is a growing trend, as couples find the cool weather romantic, even as they get a bargain on the prices.

Venues to look at

Before you begin looking at venues for the ceremony, you should have a fair idea of how many guests will be attending your wedding. The other factors that will help you choose the venue include the formality of the ceremony, availability of the location on your wedding day and how easy it is to access. For small and intimate weddings for fifty to hundred guests, the George Brown House, Toronto Wedding Chapel and Miller Lash House are good locations. Take a look at the Berkeley Church and Fieldhouse, Nestleton Waters Inn and the Avenue Banquet hall, if your wedding guest list is close to two hundred.

Food choices

Whether you prefer a plated or buffet meal, there are plenty of options that fit every budget. You can make your pick from a stunning array of international cuisines that are popular in the city. While some venues like the Gooderham Lounge at Airship 37 have a preferred list of caterers, others like the Market Kitchen in St.Lawrence Market allow you to bring your own. Read up on reviews and book tasting sessions with your preferred list of caterers, before finalizing your choice.

All-inclusive wedding packages

Many wedding venues like the Glenerin Inn provide all-inclusive wedding packages that make wedding planning very easy. The package usually includes everything from the reception room to the food and decorations in a custom style. This is usually a good idea for couples who are on a strict budget or do not have the time to go into too many details when planning their wedding.

Legal requirements

If you satisfy the marriage license requirements, you can either submit your license application online or in person at Registry Services. Both you and your partner will have to furnish two identification documents each and pay the relevant charges. Once you marriage license is issued, it is valid for three months.

Wedding shopping

We suggest shopping for your wedding gown six to nine months prior to your wedding date. This allows you sufficient time for fitting sessions and shopping for accessories. You should also arrange for bridesmaids and flower girl dress selections during this time.

You can find both your wedding dress and all the other dresses for the members of your wedding party at Best for Bride Toronto. We also offer dress and accessories rental services. Apart from this, we can also help you with your wedding favors, flowers and décor, wedding invitations and cakes. Call us to fix your appointment today.
